“After fifteen years of mysterious fatigue, pain, decline and misdiagnosis, I finally came to the conclusion that I had lyme disease after watching the documentary “Under Our Skin” online. I remembered being bitten, and had the rash, although very few people had heard of lyme at that time. Eventually, I was accurately diagnosed, and it was lyme.
Chills and aches are some of the symptoms I regularly deal with, and I have come to depend on a Thermotex Gold heating pad that I inherited from my Mother to make life more comfortable.”
You mentioned a story you wanted to share about Thermotex and why you believe Far Infrared is so remarkable.
“Several years ago, I contracted H1N1 flu. During this illness, I experienced a convulsive type episode; my spine locked up and became quite rigid and painful, preventing me from moving for a moment or two. Eventually, I recovered, but I later read that several people had died of convulsions from H1N1.
This last winter, I caught the flu again, and was terribly ill, enough that I was in bed during the day, resting with my Thermotex heating pad on my lower back. As I lay there, a convulsive sensation started at the base of my spine and began traveling upwards, similar to what I had experienced with H1N1! I tried to brace myself for what I knew was coming, but suddenly, right where the Thermotex rested on my spine, the sensation stopped.
I was astounded. The convulsive episodes continued at least 5 more times, and every time, it stopped short where the Thermotex lay on my spine. You cannot imagine the relief I felt at not having to go through what I knew was going to be a painful, frightening experience. Amazingly enough, the flu cleared up quickly after that, and I think it had everything to do with the Thermotex stopping the advances up my spine. I don’t know what might have happened otherwise, and I am so glad I had my Thermotex Gold heating pad with me that day.
I really believe it is possible that the Thermotex Gold saved my life.”
